A 7ft 8in tall man so embarrassed by his height he hid at home for 'half his life' has found love with a woman three feet smaller than him.

身高7英尺8英寸(约2.33米)的他曾因为身高问题拒出家门，最近却在身高与他相差81厘米的她身上找到了人生幸福。

Joelison Fernandes da Silva, 28, developed gigantism as a child and his rapidly soaring height forced him to drop out of school due to bullying and then refuse to leave the family house for years.

今年28岁的乔尔森·费尔南德斯·德·席尔瓦自幼患有巨人症，疯长的身高让他在学校备受欺凌，他因此辍学并多年呆在家中不愿出门。

But true happiness eventually found the shy Brazilian - who has come to be known as 'the gentle giant' - in the form of Evem Medeiros, a 5ft 21-year-old woman he met online.

然而这位28岁的“温柔巨人，最终在通过网络结识的身高5英尺(1.52米)的21岁的伊梅·梅代罗斯身上找寻到了真正的幸福。

'The first time I saw her it was love at first sight,' Joelison said. 'I was charmed by her. I wanted to be with her all the time. It didn't matter about her size.'

乔尔森说：“当我第一次见到她的时候，我就被她的魅力所吸引，我想和她永远在一起，她的身高并不重要。
